I will take the 50 cal. Morning noon and night.

The 50 cal for mobility......

Now if stationary........25mm cal Vulcan....

I am pretty sure 4 Vulcans with more than sufficient ammunition l, in strategically placed locations would most definitely change protestors and government perspectives in Minnesota.

They are nasty birds when they take over a park. If you CAN walk through all the shit and stand the smell, they will attack anything in the spring near their nest.

Maybe, Sometimes, Possibly, Depends, .......

More than once I have been able to photo op a goose on the nest. The nests were just inside:
a tall grass/ weed line,
a treeline,
a rocky (bolder) area,

Nests were along / above the normal lake line. Respectively, the goose, geese, and I just observed one another. I was able to get within an easy 20 feet of them. But I didn’t advance any closer out of mutual respect. For they allowed me to photo them with my phone camera, and I didn't want them to disturb them off their respective nesting.

It was during spring turkey season. Hence I was not a threat to the respective nesting area. Just a nuisance "invasive yuppie tourist" wanting to take a photo op of them.

Hope they weren't disappointed I didn't put them on Facebook or their photos didn't make the cut for a calendar. LOL.

Damn geese know when they are and aren't on my hunting menu.

But.....But.....It doesn't get cold in South Africa.

BS!!!......Based on personal experience, I had to set some folks straight on the seasonal equatorial differences; and how in RSA, it is possible to experience sub-zero winter, fall, mid winter, spring, fall, early summer, early winter all in the same first 5 -7 hours of the morning of the same day..

RSA is about the same latitude as Nevada, Utah, Colorado, etc only south instead of north. Seasons are about 6 months different than ours. I used to plan my hunts for our March or April which is September or October in RSA. That's after the heat and bugs are gone and the weather is usually good.
